He took out his phone from his phone and opened his browser to check the latest news.

Sure enough, the news report stated:

A 6.8-magnitude earthquake struck Bac District, Annam City, at a depth of 23 kilometers. It was the largest earthquake within a 300-kilometer radius of the epicenter in nearly five years.

The authorities acted swiftly and have dispatched rescue personnel to carry out the rescue operation.

We urge all citizens to remain calm, not to panic, and to be alert for any aftershocks...

Since the earthquake occurred in Annam, it is highly likely that the evacuation point was not located in Annam.

The other two cities adjacent to Annam City are Anyu City (Tornado copy) and Anhua City (Virus copy).

Surely the refuge areas aren't in these two places?

If that's the case, then what they're trying to escape this time won't just be Anhong City.

A strong sense of foreboding washed over me, and the next second I stumbled.

The cell phone alarm didn't go off, and the ground started shaking again.

People have just returned to normal and are going about their business.

The sudden tremor caught everyone off guard.

However, the tremor disappeared quickly, and there was no warning.

Everyone remained relatively calm, believing that there shouldn't be any major problems this time.

Just then, a skyscraper in the distance began to tilt in one direction without warning.

This marked the beginning of this mega-earthquake.

From a slight tremor to a violent shaking, it only takes a dozen seconds.

The surrounding buildings began to shake violently and uncontrollably.

It was as if an invisible giant hand was shaking them violently.

In the face of natural disasters, these skyscrapers are as fragile as stacked building blocks.

Some old buildings emitted a dull rumbling sound as the earthquake struck.

The walls began to show a dense network of cracks, like a spider web, and they were spreading rapidly.

The roof tiles fell uncontrollably, crashing to the ground with a crisp sound, and dust began to rise.

As the shaking intensified, the high-rise building seemed unable to withstand it any longer.

The wall began to crumble piece by piece, and a corner at the top crashed down with a loud bang.

Then the entire building collapsed as if it had lost its support.

It crushed everything around it, burying it under the ruins.

The NPCs screamed and scattered, trying to find a safe corner.

Shi Jinwei immediately ran to the base of a collapsed shop.

There happens to be a so-called "golden triangle" here.

But others weren't so lucky.

Extreme panic caused many people to lose their rationality.

The streets instantly descended into chaos.

Shouts, groans, and cries mingled together.

The sound echoed above the city, turning it into a new hell on earth.

People standing next to the building were buried by the collapsing walls.

Half of its arm was exposed, desperately waving and struggling in mid-air.

Some of the runners were hit by falling debris, their heads bleeding profusely, and they collapsed to the ground in pain.

The next second, it was trampled over by others and gradually lost its sound.

A child separated from his parents stood helplessly crying on the road, his cries standing out starkly against the bustling crowd.

……

Everything happened extremely suddenly.

Shi Jinwei hid in a dimly lit corner, silently watching everything that was happening outside.

I felt once again how insignificant people are.

Although it was daytime, everyone felt as if the world had fallen into darkness.

The tremors finally stopped completely a few minutes later.

However, most of the city was reduced to ruins.

People were still reeling from the catastrophe.

But soon, a new tremor began.

"Look, what's that?" someone shouted in terror, pointing in a certain direction.

People snapped out of their daze and looked in the direction he was pointing.

Then you see a towering blue wall, slowly approaching the city from the north.

A man, trembling with fear, asked the others in a shaky voice, "Am I seeing things? Is this a tsunami?"

They are not close to the sea, about 30 kilometers away.

Originally, the view of the beach was not visible from this location.

However, after the earthquake, many high-rise buildings collapsed, making the view much clearer.

The water wall is over 100 meters high, and from a distance it is almost level with the horizon.

Therefore, most people in the city can see the giant screen directly.

"Damn it, run!"

Someone shouted that there was no time to grieve after the disaster, and people continued to flee for their lives.

News reports used to say that tsunamis with waves tens of meters high could sweep across most of a city.

The tsunami waves were much higher than tens of meters, and no one dared to take any chances.

They all ran south.

They thought that this would allow them to escape the reach of the waves.

But Shi Jinwei knew that there was no time to run now, so she might as well hide in the damaged building.

The buildings were shattered after the recent destruction; most of the glass was broken.

There were many building ruins piled up on the ground around.

Even if low-rise and mid-rise buildings are knocked down by waves, the possibility of them collapsing again is extremely small.

So she ran into a nearby collapsed building without hesitation.

This building originally had more than twenty floors, but now only three or four floors remain.

The debris from the collapsed top floor lay scattered all around, a scene of utter devastation.

She found a relatively intact room with a broken window but a safety bar and crawled inside.

A large piece of building debris was used to block the entrance.

He then took out an oxygen mask and goggles and put them on.

He then put the safety helmet on his head to prevent his head from being hit.

Finally, they crouched down in the safety triangle area and waited for the tsunami to arrive.

Soon, the sound of waves could be heard outside.

Seawater surged in from all sides, filling the entire room.

She hid under the cabinet, watching the surrounding area turn into a vast ocean, without making any move.

It only swam out from below and surfaced after the sound of the water subsided.

As far as the eye could see, there was nothing but seawater and floating debris.

In addition, many human and animal corpses were floating on the water.

There wasn't a single living person around; it was as if she were the only person left in the world.

She searched around in the water and finally saw a building emerging from the water. She slowly swam towards it.

I plan to be practical first and then think about what to do next.

Then I felt like something was pulling me down.

I slowly turned around and almost screamed in fright.

A bloodied and mangled face floated on the water's surface, one eye socket smashed open.

The other eyeball was bulging out and was now glaring fiercely at Shi Jinwei.

The man was barely breathing, but his words were anything but polite: "Take me with you, or I'll kill you and you won't be leaving either."

Seeing someone begging like this for the first time, Shi Jinwei immediately launched a fierce attack.

The man was caught off guard and was still a bit dazed.

The hand gripping the clothes slowly loosened.

Shi Jinwei took the opportunity to swim forward half a meter, confirming that the man couldn't grab her from this spot.

He turned around, floated on the surface of the water, took out his crossbow, and shot at the man.

The man hadn't expected the girl to be so ruthless; he thrashed about in the water for a few moments in pain before sinking.

The water returned to calm, and she continued swimming forward.

When they climbed onto the building, they found that there were more than a dozen survivors there.

Seeing someone climb out of the water, they looked over in horror.
